"I think the proposal is real- ly raunchy," freshperson Grace Quirk said. "It will just make all the classes super competi- tive, pitting students against each other." WHILE THE bill's sponsors pointed to a need to show where students stand in a class, many students held that class rank was insignificant. "When you are looking at a grade you are judging an indi- vidual performance and not how you did compared to the rest of the class," said LSA senior Bill Lee. One LSA freshperson said, "Maybe if I was doing great in a class . . . But no, I don't think that it would be a good idea. I'm not sure that it's im- portant how you compare with the rest of the class."

CONN. between a teacher and a stu- I dent," explained graduate stu- dent and political science teach- ing assistant Anne Harper-No-' bles. "They are not for the benefit of employers or gradu- ate schools. This further erodes' the whole idea of the purpose of education. If all my students! get As I think I've done a good; job as a teacher." An indirect result of the pro- posal is to lessen grade infla- tion, but students were unim- pressed with that aspect of Flyerf (continued from Page 1) election code. The first day of the three-day MSA balloting was also marked by delays and a relatively high voter turnout for the decisions on 13 MSA members and sev- eral ballot proposals. SOC member Debra Goodman, former president of MSA's pre- decessor, Student Government Council, flatly denied SOC auth- orship of the flyer. "We will def- initely file suit with the CSJ (Central Student Judiciary) if we can find out who did this," she said. SOC CANDIDATE Amy Blu- menthal said her party "will Bruce Barquist, a sophomore in the Pilot program, said, "I don't think that this is the wayI to do it. They should deflate grades and make a C average and an A excellent, and not hand out As to half the class." "I THINK it is completely backwards. I don't see any ra- tionale behind it," protested a senior. The fear of hurting their pros-, pects with a potential employ- er or a graduate school was a factor in some students' objec- tions. "I'd rather get an inflated good grade," 'admitted junior Julie Gracie. Associate (LSA) Dean Charles Morris says other University schools andycolleges may adopt the new proposal if it is suc- cessful in LSA. A freshperson in nursing said, "I hope the nursing school doesn't go along with it. As long as I take a course and pass, what difference does it make how I rank?" -Inefficiencies could be cut by "eliminating 27 per cent of i the Teaching Fellows;" and -"Open admissions for all high school graduates with 25 per cent quota for minorityhstu- dents. . . .

Election workers at several polling places reported busy voter action all afternoon. "MOST PEOPLE come with one specific issue to vote on," said election worker Mary Hil- lier at the UGLI. "Some are confused with the length of the ballots and the wording of some questions. Many are surprised at the number of issues to be voted on." In other MSA news, the As- sembly voted at a special meet- ing last night to give $21,000 in Student Legal Advocate (SLAP) funds to the Center for Nation- al Housing Reform for a hous- ing project here. The project is designed to in- crease student awareness of leg- al aspects related to housing.

It kills your friends, your relatives .d people you don't even know. But they're all people you could save, If you knew what to say, maybe you'd be less quiet. Maybe fewer people would die. What you should say is. "I'll drive you home," O, ri -et me call a cab." Or, Sleep on my couch tonight." Don't hesitate because your friend may have been drinking only beer. Beer and wine can be just as intoxicating as mixed drinks. And don't think that black coffee will make him sober. Black coffee never made anyone sober. Maybe it would keep him awake long enough to have an accident. But that's about all. The best way to prevent a drunk from becoming a dead drunk is to stop himfrom driving. Speak up. Don't let silence be the last sound he hears. LT T~K DRMVR, DEPT. Y A-2 BOx 2345= ROCKVILLE, MARYiAND 20852 f ( I don't want to remain silent.1 ( "fell me what else I can do.
